Votergasm: Sex for Voters

Increase voter turn-onI guess the sex-phobic 90's are officially over. Votergasm is a non-profit that aims to "reverse two disturbing trends in American society: low voting rates among young people, and unacceptably low rates of youth sexual activity."

Fill out their pledge to have sex with a voter (and withhold sex from non-voters), then sign up for an election-night Votergasm party for a random hookup (a helpful cartoon shows you how it works) and, hopefully, a long night of passionate sex. They have an ambitious goal: 100,000 new voters on November 2, and 250,000 orgasms by the morning of November 3. Judging by the message boards, though, Votergasm suffers from the same problem as online singles sites: too many horny guys.

A little unconventional, perhaps, but young voters lean our way, and I presume young voters willing to pledge to have sex lean even further.

Heck, who am I foolin'? I just wish they'd had this when I was in college.

There's a similarly unconventional group at FTheVote.com whose tagline is "Trade Sex for Votes Against Bush".

I'm so glad our blog has the sexxy mens and wimmins.
Our New Patriot logo gal is going to start blushing.

Why, oh why don't candidates take the 18-25 yr. old voter seriously?

For some unknown reason, there is a perception that 18-25 year olds, especially men, can't see past their zippers to look through the bottom of their beer mugs to see an issue before it pop's them in the forehead.

Pure unsubstantiated bias.
